The accessibility obligation (EAA) — check whether it applies to your website
Since 28 June 2025, online shops, banks, telecoms and booking platforms must meet the WCAG 2.1 AA standard — micro-enterprises excepted. A manual audit costs €600–4,500. Our scanner shows you the most important issues — free, in a minute.

Our bot opens your page in a real browser, just like a customer would.
We test the page with the axe-core engine against dozens of WCAG 2.1/2.2 rules at level AA.
A 0–100 score and a list of detected problems. Fix instructions and code examples are in the full report — for you or your developer.
On 28 June 2025 the laws implementing the European Accessibility Act (EAA) came into force. The obligation covers online shops, as well as banks, telecoms, transport companies and e-book platforms. Micro-enterprises providing services are exempt — though accessibility still pays off for them.
Non-compliance carries administrative fines, and supervisory bodies can demand that violations be fixed. Beyond the law: an accessible site means more customers — people with disabilities make up around 15% of society.
A professional manual audit costs €600–4,500. Before you commission one, eliminate the errors a machine can detect — and pay a specialist only for what is genuinely hard.
Automated testing detects around 30–50% of WCAG criteria (the "technical" ones). It does not replace a manual audit or certification — it's a fast, cheap first step towards compliance.
Semantic HTML, image descriptions, correct headings and a clear structure are exactly what Google likes. Improving accessibility also improves your search rankings and conversion — two birds with one stone.
Public bodies, corporations and large chains increasingly include digital accessibility in their supplier requirements (tenders, ESG policies). A compliant site is a bidding argument — a non-compliant one can close the door on a contract.

No — and no honest tool will promise you that. Automation detects around 30–50% of WCAG criteria (contrasts, missing image descriptions, form errors, heading structure). The rest require human judgement. Our scan is the fastest way to know where to start.
The national laws implementing the European Accessibility Act (EAA) cover online shops, banks, telecom operators, transport services and e-books. Note the size threshold: micro-enterprises providing services — fewer than 10 employees and annual turnover or balance sheet total of no more than EUR 2 million — are exempt under Article 4(5) of the EAA directive. The exemption does not extend to obligations relating to products. If you are unsure how your company qualifies, check with a lawyer.
A site-wide score, results for each scanned page, a list of detected issues with a plain-English description and fix instructions, sample code snippets, and a priority checklist. You can hand the report to your developer or agency to implement.
Yes. We visit the page like a regular user — one request at a time, without submitting forms and without clicking elements that perform transactions. We do not collect any personal data from your site.
The free scan and automated report only cover publicly accessible pages. We scan what a customer sees without logging in — which is usually the area covered by the obligation anyway.
We don't sell a "magic overlay" that supposedly fixes your site with one line of JS — such solutions are criticised by the disability community and do not provide compliance. We show real problems and how to fix them in code.
